"One of the big things with FEMA is root balls. If root balls are not in the right-of-way, if they are not a safety hazard, those root-balls in your yard, your contractor needs to dispose of those, we are not going to be able to do that," said EMA Director Ron Rowe.

Rowe wants people to be sure to carefully check their landscaping contracts to make sure the fee paid includes removing the tree stumps and root balls from the property.

If you hire a contractor to do that work, it is the contractors responsibility to haul the debris away.
